Whats different in Linux 6.0?
Despite the major number change, Linux 6.0 remains another fairly sizable release.
Linux Torvalds stated,Theres nothing fundamentally different about this release.
Almost about70% of the updates are driver updates.
This includes the driver updates for sound, networking, and GPU.
The remaining parts remain updates in filesystems tools and just a few random changes.
However, the Rust for Linux patches were supposed to be made available in the later releases soon.
